This bridge, dating from the late 18th century, is located in the former park of Westcombe House, which has since been demolished. It carries a trackway over a stream and was designed as a romantic feature within an expanded landscape. The bridge is constructed of rubble and features a single central segmental archway, with rubble voussoirs and abutments. The parapet has rough coping, adding to its rustic charm.
